Hmmm.  Shawn mentioned that he gets

   (every-of #t)
   => #f ; *** wrong ***, desired result:
   => #t

I get that too, but since the test reported one wrong result and I saw
the string->symbol failure, I stopped there.

So, it seems that there are three problems:

- (every-of #t) => #f
- (string->symbol #t) => #t
- the wrong examples counter. :-)

Shouldn't (string->symbol #t) raise an error?

BTW, I used Chromium and Firefox on Linux.

Best wishes.
